T5 FAULTY Barometric pressure sensor? S70 1998

posted by  someone claiming to be Ray N. on  Tue Jun 11 09:01 CST 2002 [RELATED]

The sensor is in front of the bottle for windshield wiper fluid.
It tells the ECU your altitude. Used to control boost and turn
off some things at altitude (like controlling fuel injection time
at altitude when starting).

I did not see a price for it listed on alldatadiy.com (you pay $25
a year and get access to Volvo technical info).

Here is a list of sensors on a 98 Volvo (as you can see, lots of em):
